Naming the Baby

I think that choosing the perfect name is one of the most fun and most difficult things about having a baby. It might seem like an easy task to those of you who haven’t done it yet, but a lot is riding on the decision! Just think about it: Your little one is going to go through the rest of his or her life with that name. Scott and I have been bouncing lots of baby names off of each other, but nothing’s stuck quite yet. We’ve been reading baby naming books, discussing our favorite characters from books and movies and thumbing through the list of the 100 most popular baby names of 2011 for inspiration. Scott loves Duke for a boy, but I vetoed that idea right away. It’s a cute name and all, but it’s already our dog’s name!!

What do you think we should name the baby? I’d love to hear your suggestions!

Love, Molly

      My daughters are Annabelle and Kinsley. I had the hardest time choosing names that aren't that common. I like Marshall for a boy. Good luck in your search!

      I am currently 20 weeks pregnant with my first child. Two names at the top of my list: Kallen for a boy and Ava for a girl. Wishing you the very best. ~Shari

      It was hard for me to think of what to name my four kids, so I know how you and your husband feel. My suggestions are: boy - Kaleb, Caden, or Glenn; girl - Brooke, Hayden, or Ashlyn. Good luck along the way and CONGRATS!!!!! Being a mother (especially for the first time) is the greatest experience (personally better than getting married) you could ever experience in your life.

      I love Amelia, Madeleine, Carlton, and Emerson for a girl and Noah, Hudson and Bennett for a boy. It is a difficult decision and sometimes a name has to "grow on you" but you will get a feeling of peace and will just know it when you hear the right name! Jennifer from Murray
